LOOK DU JOUR

Voici ce que j'ai porté aujourd'hui, pour me balader. Oh oui, mon amoureux et moi sommes allés découvrir un resto coréen sur Bishop. C'est moi ou tout goûte pareil, dans la bouffe coréenne? (c'est délicieux tout de même).

LE ROSE POUDRE

A LITTLE GIFT

Today, I arrived to work to a surprise. Chocolate frosted cupcakes (with a glass of milk of course) and a petit cadeau, a token of recognition for my work as an intern! :)

Bracelet from Links of London. I love receiving jewelry because it is something I would never get for myself. 

LOOK DU LUNDI

FALL 2011 - LOOK 1

Last wednesday, I attended the biannual Road Tour presentation that Barbara Atkins, Holt Renfrew's VP of Fashion Direction, puts together every season. She presented some of the key trends she anticipated to see on the street, and hence, at Holt stores. 
It got me starting to think about what I would like to be wearing come fall. Look #1 would be black on black. I love all black outfits because the magic is all in the details. Juxtapositions of the darkest shades create a mysterious, sophisticated woman. I love these looks by Jil Sander (fall 2011). The beauty is in the play of structures, tailoring and textures.

Alaïa does an interesting rendition (fall 2011 couture) of black by bringing out its girly glam side, with this bell skirt and glamourous embroideries. 

Me with Barbara Atkins. Want that Stella dress. Need to tone my arms.

STELLA CAKE

Sorry for all the Stella overload as of late, but Apollina has made a fashionable little cake that was too good to not post about!

How cool is that? You can find the recipe here.

LE WEEKEND

Voici quelques photos du weekend:

photos par moi, sauf celle de, moi, bien évidemment (par mon amoureux).

STELLA DOES IT AGAIN

The resort 2012 collection is the epitome of perfect wardrobe staples. Below are my favourite looks; everything about these pieces comprise everything I want right this moment. Slim ankle-grazing trousers in velvety wool blends, dainty ballerina flats with a stacked heel, slightly short sleeves, silky work-appropriate dresses that fall right below the knee, amazing. Amazing. Now hand those over.

I would say that Stella has proved once and for all that she is the master of feminine androgyny.

LOOK DU JOUR

GIRL CRUSH

Giovanna - la beauté, la classe, le style intemporel... la femme fatale, quoi. Son allure me paraît si honnête, si naturel et je distingue l'évolution de mon style s'aligner de plus en plus avec le sien. C'est de ce constat que je relève à quel point cette femme m'inspire. J'admire sa capacité de balancer le moderne et le classique, les tendances et les basiques, et d'agencer le tout en restant fidèle à son look individuel. Il s'agit d'un glamour inné et sincère, ni orgueilleux, ni arrogant, mais plutôt passé de mère en fille (da madre a figlia), préservé à travers des générations.

Quoi? Vous trouvez que je vous ai foutu trop de photos en un seul coup? 
ps: Giovanna Battaglia, marry me?

YEAH BABY!

I'm BACK, and so is my mac! I called in this morning as soon as I counted the 15th business day of repairs and apparently my computer has been ready since JUNE 16TH. Also apparently, they called and tried but couldn't leave a voicemail (?!?!?!). So naturally they just left it on the shelf and didn't bother calling back. Being the calm and mature person that I am I only ranted about it to my boyfriend, my boss, the general manager's assistant, everybody who reads my blog...
Aside from the mishaps, I've made a few purchases over my last 3 weeks of absence, for which I will dedicate a future post to. For the now, I'm just happy to be back!
